Uhh.. What issues were you having?! I have been freaking out lately because my hair is SO thin now. I used to have loads of hair, and now it feels like wispy grandma hair. I thought it was just hormones or something. Did you have different problems or is thinning what you are referring to?
If it turns out my hair is thinning because I'm not eating enough fat, topped with not pooping enough, I am going to have to do some serious fat counting and start eating a LOT more of it. This hair thing is really taking an emotional toll on me.
Trazey34: I was a once-a-day pooper, every other day at the very longest, before changing my diet 18 months ago.
To all of those who wanted an update: I had more fats yesterday than I have had in a long time (sesame oil in some soup, an extra serving of hazelnut butter, an extra half-ounce of cheese, and some coconut butter). I bought some avocados to have with tonight's dinner. I had a cup of Senna tea and 3 prunes last night before bed. And I drank a fancy schmancy pro-biotic drink with my lunch. No poop to report today yet (but I did go a bit yesterday which relieved some of the pressure feeling).
More updates as they develop, so to speak
